Abstract

In the competitive landscape of mobile food ordering applications (MFOA) in India, the primary focus is enhancing the customer experience to mirror or even exceed their offline meal acquisition experiences. Existing research underscores the pivotal role of a superior online experience in driving business success. Against the backdrop of a dearth of studies addressing online customer experience (OCE), our current research seeks to gain insight into its state and its implications for attitudes and intentions. Specifically, we investigate the impact of OCE on the continued usage intentions (CUI) of new MFOA users. This study not only sheds light on the relationship between OCE and CUI but also presents a fresh configuration of OCE, addressing its varied conceptualization. Furthermore, drawing on data collected from over 400 first-time users of MFOA, our findings reveal that e-satisfaction and e-trust act as full mediators in influencing CUI. Finally, the study also suggests that e-trust mediates the effect of e-satisfaction on the CUI of MFOA users. Our research contributes to our understanding of OCE by specifically highlighting the experiences and outcomes of first-time users of MFOAs. Practitioners should employ strategies including personalized orientation and data gathering, location-based services, in-app messaging, push notifications and gamification techniques to increase OCE and drive CUI.

超越第一口:了解在线体验如何影响移动食品应用市场的用户忠诚度
摘要 在印度移动订餐应用程序(MFOA)的竞争格局中,首要重点是提升客户体验,以反映甚至超越他们的线下用餐体验。现有研究强调了卓越的在线体验在推动业务成功方面的关键作用。在缺乏针对在线客户体验(OCE)的研究的背景下,我们目前的研究试图深入了解在线客户体验的现状及其对客户态度和意向的影响。具体来说,我们研究了 OCE 对 MFOA 新用户的持续使用意愿(CUI)的影响。本研究不仅揭示了 OCE 与 CUI 之间的关系,还对 OCE 进行了全新的配置,解决了其不同的概念化问题。此外,通过收集 400 多名首次使用 MFOA 的用户的数据,我们的研究结果表明,电子满意度和电子信任度是影响 CUI 的完全中介。最后,研究还表明,电子信任在电子满意度对 MFOA 用户 CUI 的影响中起中介作用。我们的研究特别强调了首次使用 MFOA 的用户的体验和结果,有助于我们对 OCE 的理解。从业人员应采用包括个性化定位和数据收集、基于位置的服务、应用内消息、推送通知和游戏化技术在内的策略,以增加 OCE 并推动 CUI。

期刊介绍: The Internet and the World Wide Web have brought a fundamental change in the way that individuals access data, information and services. Individuals have access to vast amounts of data, to experts and services that are not limited in time or space. This has forced business to change the way in which they conduct their commercial transactions with their end customers and with other businesses, resulting in the development of a global market through the Internet. The emergence of the Internet and electronic commerce raises many new research issues. The Electronic Commerce Research journal will serve as a forum for stimulating and disseminating research into all facets of electronic commerce - from research into core enabling technologies to work on assessing and understanding the implications of these technologies on societies, economies, businesses and individuals.
